Clean sheets

1.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume across 12 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (1st of 12) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 44.4% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Defensive numbers. Modest 1.67 defensive actions per 90 for the position.
  • Age curve. At 34, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

Rated 6.7 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.67 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).
